Bought van with 113,000 miles. I believe the previous owner used head gasket sealant on it and pawned it off on myself which was a elderly couple. Both heater cores also were leaking as well as the cluster not working properly (gas gauge etc) power steering leaks. Water just started coming in the ceiling through the overhead switches after a Google search of known problems after the fact I never should have bought this van. It appeared ok when looking it over, but I think previous owners did a bunch of things to temporarily hide the problems.
Avoid these vans like the plague. With that being said, I have had my best like with Chevy vehicles. I might also add that I've had this vehicle running for months now without overheating driving back and forth to work. I pulled the thermostat and have been keeping water in it, although I had to drain a oil, gas, water mixture from the motor to keep it off the spark plugs.
